Nissan Ariya - Electric Travel Guide Prague

Did you know that Nissan has produced an Electric Travel Guide? It already includes Stockholm, and it’s now been expanded to include Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovakia.

The idea is that the Nissan Electric Travel Guide provides recommendations about what to see when driving in Europe in an electric car – and of course it includes charging stops.

Designed to help global travellers enjoy more sustainable holidays, the Electric Travel Guide curates a mix of culture, cuisine and nature, while connecting must-see spots along picturesque routes.

Global travellers are increasingly prioritising impact and purpose while planning their trips. As many as eight out of ten (81%) agree they want to travel to destinations where they can immerse themselves into the local culture, while six out of ten (62%) say they want to be more thoughtful about where and how they travel.

EV drivers can explore the world-famous State Opera House in Vienna; take in the unrivalled views of Prague, the ‘City of a Hundred Spires’; discover the marvel of Budapest Castle; or take a stroll through Central Europe’s oldest public park in Bratislava.

The Nissan Electric Travel Guide recommends the following sights in Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia:

1. Devin (Bratislava)

Head to the banks of the Danube to explore one of the oldest castles in Slovakia and enjoy breath-taking views – even seeing as far as Vienna and the snowy tops of the Austrian Alps.

2. Zochova Chata (Bratislava)

Relax in an oasis of wellness set against a backdrop of lush forests at the Hotel Zochova Chata – all while enjoying great food and local wines.

3. Budapest City Park (Budapest)
